Dear Terry. Leroy here. I've been learning something new since I met you! Which was great by the way! I'm learning to ring a bell to go do my business outside. It's a cow bell! Fred says now everyone will know what a ding dong I am! Woof! Today, Dad just threw up his hands at me. I pooped then rang the bell! Oops. That was backwards. That's when Fred called me a ding dong. Oh! And when I was out in the yard with Mom just now, I smelled the Dead Smell. Mom knew, she could smell it too. Then OH MY GOSH!!! THE BIGGEST BIRD ALIVE landed close to me!! MOMMOMMOMMOMMOMMMMMMM!!! I knew what to do!! AWOOOOOOO, AWOOOOO at the top of my lungs. I'm a huntin' dog and have a good voice. This was the absolute loudest I've ever howled and bayed. Mom said so! Mom came to see and she said ohhhh, that's a turkey vulture. AWOOOOOAWOOOO! it opened up it's wings allllll the way wide. Big!!! Then it strolled away to find the dead thing. Mom said, Good job Leroy, everyone for miles now knows there's a turkey vulture here! We went I,side to tell Dad all about it!

Barks & bays, Leroy
